The department personnel includes 2 PhDs

Main activities:
  • Study, analysis and forecast for exogenetic gold deposits (placers, crusts of weathering).
  • Expertise and approval of gold inferred resources in crusts of weathering and placers.
  • Gold placer potential analysis in prospecting and area estimation for ore gold.
  • Native gold typomorphic features analysis
